For drug possession and "minor infractions". 

My tenant reached out yesterday, said she signed for a package. The package consisted of 2 papers from the trade program. 

First paper states SS18 is being let go for 1 count drug possession, 1 count minor infractions.

The other paper is a blank paper, titled “right to appeal”. 

So it looks like he even blew it at jobcorp. 

I remember when he went in, he came out to visit over a month later.  I told DH that they keep them in for that first month if they were positive for drug use. DH insisted that SS told him he was clean. But I knew better. 

For years, I’ve told DH about both of his kids. He never liked hearing it. Denied that they were “bad kids”. But I knew better. 

I told DH this last year that every time Ss18 would pass by, he smells like vape (I only know this because it’s how older SS used to smell). DH would say he went to SSs room, checked his stuff and it was probably just the smell of his cologne. But I knew better. 

SS18 was upset when he left, when he realized the gravy train was ending. He texted me that last month he was living with me that he would “prove me wrong”. I hoped for it, I really was rooting for him to change. But I knew better. 

I don’t want any parts of that around DD8. 

I’m sure he knew why he was being kicked out, but of course he wasn’t honest about it to DH. I had DH text him a picture of the paper, so he would know that we knew. 

I guess the only thing he can do is stay with ss23. Ss23 is not the type to want to be the bad guy, he’s pretty spineless. He won’t kick his brother out, at least not yet. I see this imploding within a few months, but a year tops. 

The things I disliked about SS18 will be things Ss23s gf will dislike about him also. He won’t be able to keep a job, because he’s too defiant and doesn’t think life’s rules apply to him. He will stay up all night on his phone and eat their food when they're sleeping. He will spend his money on weed and snacks. He will get angry if you ask him to consistent in helping. It will always be everyone's fault why he fails at life. The thing is SS23 was similar with the victim mentality so it could potentially work out. But...ss23 is also a narcissist whereas ss18 has often told me he doesn't respect how fake his brother is. Time will tell, I'll be far away eating my popcorn hearing about this mess. 

I’m glad for him he didn’t already have his GED and go military. I’ve heard if you get a dishonorable discharge it can be quite difficult to find work.
